The student and I studied for his Biology test by reviewing worksheets, looking through the chapter, making flashcards and discussing some subjects. I gave him some study tips as well. Afterwards, we went over his Grammar homework and, discussed subject verb agreement, with compound subjects and more irregular subjects, such as: groups of people, teams, works of art or literature, and subject- verb agreement in passive construction of sentences. He seemed to grasp all the subjects well.

Online Science Tutoring review by Alicia
Reviewed Newton's laws, with special emphasis on the concept of inertia. Practiced problems using the equations for acceleration (F=ma and a=dV/t). Worked through different inertia situations (e.g. dropping a penny while in an airplane) together until the student was solid on the concept. Spent last 20 minutes on Spanish (chapter 4 vocabulary, and reviewing conjugation of -ar verbs.)

Online Science Tutoring review by Garrett
We spent the session reviewing for the student's Physics test, which will be tomorrow. He had already had a test on Chapter 12, which encompassed Newton's 3 Laws and Momentum. We reviewed his test and the corresponding material, focusing on the differences between elastic and inelastic momentum. We did practice calculations, as he had trouble with the extra credit momentum problem on the test. We spent the rest of the session going over material from Chapter 14, which details Work, Power, and Mechanical Advantage. Michael had little trouble understanding work and power, and we did practice problems and discussed the importance of knowing the units for the variables in question. We spent a good deal of time talking about Mechanical Advantage and machines, and I explained how machines make our lives easier by allowing us to use less or more force to move things farther or shorter distances. We finished by discussing the simple machines (lever, pulley, wheel and axle, etc.).

If you'd like to get more out of your science education, then Varsity Tutors can help you by connecting you with experienced science tutors. Science tutoring is available for students of all ages and in a variety of different scientific disciplines. Working with a private instructor is a unique way to start making the academic progress that you've been working towards in your science class. Or, if you have an important exam coming up that covers challenging scientific topics, then you may also benefit from working with a science tutor. If you're interested in working with a private science instructor, then the best way to get started with the process is by reaching out to us directly today. You can also keep reading to get more information about different types of science and the specific ways that science tutors help their students.

Why is it Important to Learn About Science?

Science is an important subject area for a few key reasons. First, the skills that a student can develop through studying science can help them with their daily lives. Science teaches students to think critically about challenging information and how to interpret, evaluate, and understand data in a variety of settings. Broadly speaking, science is concerned with how humans pursue and apply knowledge of the natural and social world. Studying science involves things like learning and applying scientific methodology, recording observations through measurement and data, experimentation, hypothesis testing, and much more.

As a field of study, science can help us understand how the world we live in functions and how the organisms that populate the world function as well. Science is a fairly broad term that encompasses a number of different disciplines. For example, if you're studying science you may mean natural science, life science, biology, chemistry, physics, geology, astronomy, physiology, ecology, and more. Clearly, there's a lot to be learned when studying the field of science. No matter what scientific topic you're currently studying, working with a private instructor is a great way to make progress in it. Your educator can offer you a customized learning plan that is specifically targeted with your growth in mind. Why not give private science instruction a chance? It could be just what you need to fulfill more of your potential in the subject area.

How is Science Taught Today?

The specific science classes that you take will depend on your grade level and the school that you're attending. Students typically start learning about science through easy lessons that help them relate to the world around them. As they progress with their education, they'll start to cover more complex topics. Eventually, the science classes that students take branch off into specific scientific disciplines. A student may spend one school year studying biology and the next studying physics.

Students in the 4th grade, for example, may cover a wide variety of topics in order to start building the scientific skills they'll need to do well in more challenging future classes. These students could spend their time working on things like scientific investigations. This involves using their critical reasoning skills, forming and testing hypotheses, and learning about and applying the other parts of the scientific method. Students at this level could also study things like changes in matter and energy, principles of sound, the solar system, and living things.

No matter what grade you're currently in, you can sign up to work with science tutors in order to get more out of your classroom education. Private instructors work with their students in a one-on-one environment where the needs of the student always retain the top priority. This makes private science instruction a great way to bridge the gap between the instruction that you're getting in school currently and the level of instruction that you feel you need to get more out of your academic potential.

How is Science Tested Today?

Because students study science during each school year, they'll also spend time taking a number of tests that cover core scientific topics. Working with a science tutor is a great way to start developing the skills that you'll need to feel prepared for these tests. You may be asked to take a science test in your science class. Or, you could also have to take a standardized exam that covers key scientific topics.

For example, the ACT is a standardized college admissions test that is usually taken by students who are getting ready to finish high school and who are starting to apply to college. This test covers the most important subjects that a student would have studied up to that point in their academic career. Accordingly, the exam has a section that's devoted to science. It's important to do well on this part of the test because it will play a large role in determining your final score on the ACT. If you earn a strong ACT score then you may be able to get into more competitive universities and can earn additional scholarship offers.

Science tutoring is a great way to prepare for important science exams like the Science section on the ACT. Your instructor can work with you to identify your biggest areas of concern. Then, they can address those problem areas with you through a personalized lesson plan. Your instructor can help you create flashcards to remember challenging topics and can even set you up with practice tests so that you can get a feel for what the day of your exam will actually be like.

While helping you develop your scientific knowledge, your instructor can also work with you on your general test-taking skills. For example, have you ever dealt with test anxiety in the past? This is something that can make it hard to focus while taking important exams. If you experience test anxiety on the day of your upcoming science exam, you could even have a hard time remembering the material that you studied during your test preparation process. If this has been an issue for you in the past, then your instructor would be happy to show you some relaxation techniques that you can use to overcome this feeling on the day of your test.

Similarly, your educator can spend some of their time with you helping you to manage your time more effectively while taking exams with restrictive time limits. They can also model what an ideal test preparation process looks like so that you know what to do in the future when you have to prepare for another important exam. All of these test-taking skills are things that you can utilize on your upcoming exam as well as on any tests that you take throughout the remainder of your academic career.

How Does Science Tutoring Work?

Once you get connected with your instructor, you'll quickly be able to start meeting with them for one-on-one learning sessions. These learning sessions will feature content and exercises that are targeted specifically with your growth in mind. You'll be able to work through each lesson from your instructor at your own pace. You will also be able to stop and get additional guidance if you find yourself struggling with one of the topics that's covered in your learning session. This creates an efficient and personalized learning experience that is hard to replicate through other academic opportunities.

For instance, even the best teachers struggle to provide all of their students with enough one-on-one attention to help them fulfill their potential in the class they're taking. This is due to the fact that teachers have to help a group of students at the same time. Tutoring is different because your instructor only has you to focus on. This is a powerful difference that can make finding academic progress much easier for you.

How Can You Get Started?

If you're interested in working with a private instructor, then the quickest way to get started with the process is by contacting us today. We'll start by speaking with you a little to learn about your academic needs, current skill level, and scheduling requirements. Then, we'll make every effort to connect you with a science tutor who can satisfy all of your requirements.
